The Suns should be the weakest team Lin Tian has encountered since joining the Lakers.

In the studio at this time, the commentator Barkley smiled and said: "Smith, do you think this young man from the Lakers will suffer from big contract syndrome?"

The so-called big contract syndrome is that after receiving a big contract, the performance declines sharply, and it is completely unacceptable for the big contract offered by the team.

Smith shook his head: "I don't think so, this guy is a disciple of Kobe!"

Since Kobe Bryant publicly supported Lin Tian, ​​Lin Tian has gained many titles, such as "Kobe Bryant's disciple", "Mamba's successor"...

"Haha! So, since Devin Booker, Kobe has another disciple."

"Although Kobe cannot play in today's game, he is watching the game from the sidelines. I hope this young man will not let Kobe down!"

Staples Center, the game has officially begun.

The two sides jumped the ball in the middle circle. Hibbert passed the ball to Lin Tian. Lin Tian came to the frontcourt with the ball and faced P.J. Tucker who was guarding him. He directly chose to break through. When he reached the free throw line, he collected the ball.

Then he made a small jump forward and scored an easy layup.

Although PJ Tucker has shown extraordinary defensive talent at this stage, he obviously cannot guard Lin Tian.

After the Suns served, the ball was controlled by Braden Knight.

The Suns' goal this season is very clear, which is to rebuild, so the young people in the team have a lot of shooting rights.

Since team boss Eric Bledsoe announced he was out for the season due to surgery last month, Knight's rights to the ball have increased significantly.

Facing Lu Wei's defense, Knight also chose to break through and successfully scored.

It can be seen that Lu Wei is already trying his best to defend, but his physical fitness and defensive awareness are not that good.

The ball returned to the Lakers. This time Lin Tian did not choose to break through with the ball, but passed the ball to Clarkson.

Clarkson did not disappoint him and successfully scored 2 points with a beautiful breakthrough.

The Suns launched a counterattack again, and Lin Tian still defended PJ Tucker. His task was to prevent Tucker from easily receiving the ball and shooting.

Since the Warriors ushered in the three-point era, excellent 3D players have become the standard for winning teams.

Klay Thompson of the Warriors, Iman Shumpert and Jr. Smith of the Cavaliers are also considered 3D players.

The Suns' PJ Tucker is even more of a pure 3D player.

He has shot almost as many three-pointers this season as he has made two-pointers.

Therefore, guarding these players often only requires preventing them from shooting three-pointers, which is not a tiring job.

Knight passed the ball to Devin Booker, and Booker hit a three-pointer against Clarkson's defense.

After the Lakers served the ball, they passed the ball to Lin Tian as usual.

Now Lin Tian basically plays as a point forward, not even a point forward.

Because once he advances with the ball, he rarely passes the ball out, no matter how many people are inside.

PJ Tucker stared at Lin Tian fiercely: "Hey! Rookie! Don't even think about losing me this time!"

He likes physical confrontation and is known for his tough defense.

In 2014, the biggest reason why he was able to sign a three-year, 16.5 million contract with the Suns was because of his defensive ability.

Lin Tian smiled and said, "It doesn't count if you say it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he passed by Tucker in one stride.

Even though Tucker was already accelerating desperately, he still couldn't catch up with Lin Tian.

The Suns are guarding the inside with Tyson Chandler. He was once the best defensive player in the league, but due to injuries and age, his performance is much worse than before. He is completely unable to stop Lin Tian who has already entered the inside.

I can only watch the basketball go into the hoop.

In just over a minute after the game started, Lin Tian already scored 4 points.

Kobe Bryant on the sidelines clapped with satisfaction when he saw Lin Tian playing so smoothly in the opening game.

PJ Tucker gritted his teeth, damn it! How come this kid is faster than a defender?

After the Suns took possession of the ball, they finally missed their first shot of the game.

The ball hit the basket and bounced back, exactly where Tucker and Lin Tian were.

Tucker quickly jumped up to grab the rebound, but Lin Tian had already jumped up and grabbed the ball over Tucker's head.

After his legs landed on the ground, he rushed forward like a beast. Even the Suns' guards Booker and Knight couldn't catch up with him!

The basketball was sent into the basket by Lin Tian again.

"Lin! Scored again! Scored 6 points in a row!" the DJ's excited voice sounded.

The audience also cheered at this time, and some of the dissatisfaction caused by Kobe not appearing on the stage was eliminated.

Lin Tian actively returned to defense and said a provocative word to Tucker: "You are too slow! Someone else should guard me."

Tucker was immediately furious. He can be considered the toughest defender on the team and the best defender on the team.

He loves to defend star players. Every time he plays against a strong team, he is assigned to defend the opponent's star player.

But now, a young boy dares to talk to him like this.

The angry Tucker widened his eyes like a bull, and at that moment Naihe passed the ball to him.

Tucker didn't think too much, he just wanted to make a three-pointer first!

He jumped up on the spot and hit the ground running!

But he seemed to have forgotten that standing in front of him was Lin Tian, ​​who was 2.05 meters tall and had not lost his position at all!

Lin Tian also didn't expect Tucker to shoot a jumper without even making a fake move. Who is he looking down on?

Lin Tian, ​​who was standing on the spot, bent his legs slightly, and then suddenly exerted force! After the whole person took off, the position of the soles of his feet was almost in the same straight line as Tucker's knees after taking off!

Tucker's eyes were originally looking at the basket, but Lin Tian's jump directly blocked the sky!

Not to mention the basket, he can't even see the backboard now!

At this time, the basketball had flown out of Tucker's fingertips, and it was useless for Tucker to regret it.

Since Lin Tian has copied the ability of peak Iverson, then Iverson's jumping will naturally be completely copied.

The vertical jump is 110 centimeters, which ranks among the top five in NBA history!

And his height is not 1.83 meters, but 2.05 meters!

In front of more than 20,000 spectators, Lin Tian did not bat the ball out of the court, but directly grabbed the ball with both hands, as if he were grabbing an ordinary rebound!

"Oh! My God! What did I see!" the DJ on the scene has been screaming, "I swear this is the most brutal block I have ever seen!"

"Wow!" Many viewers stood up in shock, and the atmosphere was completely ignited.

Even Kobe, who was sitting on the sidelines watching the game, covered his eyes and leaned back with an extremely exaggerated expression!
Chapter completed!
